I said Scott, because him, Chappers and Laura actually do make me smile and laugh. Can't see why most peeps seem to have a problem with him.

Vernon Kay makes me switch off every weekend during his show - hate his voice and I just don't find him funny one bit.
Jo is great, and I sometimes listen to her show if I get a chance but some of the music she plays just isn't my thing.
Love Edith!

No idea about Colin, Reggie & Fearne or JK & Joel because I've never listened to their shows.

I like Scott and Chappers, not keen on Laura, she is a bit fake - but I can't bear the prank calls they do, drive me up the wall. I know the voice grates a bit, but on the whole, I'm going to have to go with Vernon - his show is good........don't hit me!

Bacon was great on 5 Live when he use to do the weekend slot. I listened to him a couple of times when he was on Capital as well and agree he much better on drive than Scott.

Wow I didnt think that scott would do well, but ah well, and it is true that laura and chappers do make the mills show good, as well as some of the features i.e. flirt divert

If these hardcore sophisticated late night DJs would lower themselves to the newly titled 'Daytime Radio' tag on the site, then I might repect their commitment to the station, and not just new music. I'd like to see Westwood develop a personality for morning, he'd be legendary during all the madness of ramble. Zane Lowe, he should come out of the shadows and prove that intellectual music shows could actually work in the mornings, providing there was banter. It's be a treat for the listeners just for a fortnight and would help get the DJs of the night better known, otherwise they'll just turn into vampires hehe.

Oh and Scott Mills? It doesnt work if the Moyes theme tune is still in place, does it?

Oooh, Zane Lowe! He would be BRILLIANT! I love him. If he could cope with the mornings, I think Westwood would be good too.....!

Don't like Scott Mills, annoying little ****, plus Laura and Chappers are 2 sicofantic morons. Vernon Kay would be quite an interesting listen, not sure Edith would be right for the slot though I like the show. Ferne and Reggie would be good as well, there very good together.

scott is clearly the second best daytime dj at radio 1. no one else would even come close to providing a mildly entertaining breakfast show.

I'm sure all the late night DJs are aspiring to gain your respect.

I think that's kind of the joke.

I agree with Quincy about Mills, but I also agree with Yudster about the prank calls - never found them funny.

I don't mind Scott Mills, a change is as good as a rest and he's the only one with the energy in his show to carry breakfast, can you imagine Jo Whiley doing it. I Love the woman but my god no-one would get out of bed, she'd send them back to sleep with her laid back appoach.

Failing Scott, I'd have to say JK or Joel or DLT for 1 week only.

Moyles and Mills are the only decent non-specialist DJs that Radio 1 have.

You are busting my balls...... he is absolute pants, a waste of space on Radio 1. The show is so scripted and predictable it's pathetic.

Since Mayo left or joined?

I appreciate that Mills is a brilliant presenter, and doing a very good job - but he just doesn't have that arrogant, screw you attitude that Moyles does. I can listen to Scott happily now, but it's not a show that I want to listen to everyday. In a way it's just too slick..

Which is partly why I prefer Chris.

But would he be too similar if he did? We're all on here as Moyles fans so clearly the majority will prefer him (including me), but as you say Mills is a decent presenter as well and has his own qualities.
